History

Terrorizer is an American grindcore band from Los Angeles, California that formed in 1986. After forming, their recorded several demos and recorded their masterpiece debut, “World Downfall” very quickly into their career. However, in 1988, just two years after their formation, the band split up, making the release of World Downfall in 1989 a posthumous release.

The band would remain dead as past members would make career out of playing in bands such as Napalm Death, Morbid Angel, and Nausea. Not until 2005 would there be any reports of a possible reunion. That year, Jesse Pintado and Pete Sandoval would get with other musicians and record their second album, “Darker Days Ahead,” that was released in August of 2006. Unfortunately, on the week of the album’s release, Pintado died due to liver failure.

In 2009, once again Terrorizer got back together and released a demo track entitled “Hordes Of Zombies.” Nothing else would be released for two years, when they signed with Season Of Mist and then released their third studio album, “Hordes Of Zombies,” in February of 2012. Later that year, drummer Pete Sandoval announced that Terrorizer was already working on new material.
